How, how could we forget about you
The summoner, the centerfold, successor to the brood
Of all the iterations yeah you're the sickest dude
Fighting cow, how could we forget about you
Say you don't hate me for nothing
Hate me for falling out of reach
Hate me for something
Never knew that you could be so lonely, lonely
Running out of feelings so pretend you can be lonely, lonely
Stuck in your mind
Can't let it go
What hurts you the most
Is I wasn't there to beg you
"Baby don't go"
Put on a show
Light it up
Light it up
No, it's not a phase
It's the way that she combs my hair
Never wake
Never wake from this coma
How, how could we forget about you
The summoner, the centerfold, successor to the brood
Of all the iterations yeah you're the sickest dude
Fighting cow, how could we forget about you
Light it up for us
Show me the way you're growing
Your catharsis is beautiful
I wish I could be you
Show up at the ball wit yo doo doo faced babe
The robot with human hair is dead but gets laid
That's why he's got all these kids on the way
His son's a girl named baby swirl that loves to swang his blade
Can't let it go
What hurts you the most
Is I wasn't there to beg you
"Baby don't go"
Put on a show
Light it up
Light it up
No, it's not a phase
It's the way that she combs my hair
Never wake
Never wake from this coma
Light it up for us
Show me the way you're growing
Your catharsis is beautiful
Brighter
How I wish I could touch you
Feel you, breathe you, be just like you
The summoner, the centerfold, successor to the brood
Of all the iterations yeah you're the sickest dude
Fighting cow, how could we forget about you
Say you don't hate me for nothing
Hate me for falling out of reach
Hate me for something
Never knew that you could be so lonely, lonely
Running out of feelings so pretend you can be lonely, lonely
Stuck in your mind
Can't let it go
What hurts you the most
Is I wasn't there to beg you
"Baby don't go"
Put on a show
Light it up
Light it up
No, it's not a phase
It's the way that she combs my hair
Never wake
Never wake from this coma
How, how could we forget about you
The summoner, the centerfold, successor to the brood
Of all the iterations yeah you're the sickest dude
Fighting cow, how could we forget about you
Light it up for us
Show me the way you're growing
Your catharsis is beautiful
I wish I could be you
Show up at the ball wit yo doo doo faced babe
The robot with human hair is dead but gets laid
That's why he's got all these kids on the way
His son's a girl named baby swirl that loves to swang his blade
Can't let it go
What hurts you the most

"Baby don't go"
Put on a show
Light it up
Light it up
No, it's not a phase
It's the way that she combs my hair

Never wake from this coma
Light it up for us
Show me the way you're growing
Your catharsis is beautiful
Brighter
How I wish I could touch you
Feel you, breathe you, be just like you

“Put on a show, light it up” I believe is in response to watching someone go through emotions. The robot can’t have emotions and finds it beautiful, finds them incredible.
“Show me the way you’re growing. Your catharsis is beautiful, I wish I could be you.”
It’s finding beauty in the simplest of things; truly our emotions are a wondrous, beautiful and difficult thing.
"Your catharsis is beautiful
Brighter
How I wish I could touch you
Feel you, breathe you, be just like you"
Very well some of the best vocals from Tilian on this whole album and DGD's discography. I don't know the lore behind the "robot" series from Dance Gavin Dance but I'd be interested on anyone else's take.
